Equius "Eqi" Zahhak
@centaursArsenal
Hello. I'm Equius Zahhak, one of many, but I go by she/her. From a doomed timeline, but recently moved. I swear I have grown for the better. Sorry for being weird as a youth.
D --> I've been amassing a sizable collection of pretty clothes and dresses now that we've moved here. It's nice. To add to dress talk anyway.
D --> It's... strange. Do you ever feel an ache, like you are missing something, something important, but you don't know why? My pusher hurts.
D --> Apologies for the silence, I have been busy. I've found myself at the front of a few local community projects that I have the mechanical know-how to handle. It feels good being useful in this way.
D --> I have even been granted blue. Fantastic
D --> Right, I figure it's about time, @imJunior . Dear shades friend, can I receive the trans pride and bi pride badges please? I would appreciate it, thank you.
D --> It is also comforting to see other iterations of me exploring their identities. Makes me feel less alone.
D---> Why of course, self e%pression and self actualization are very important.
D --> Anyway. Women. They're nice.
D --> Even if they were fake, which they are not, I would hope my fond regard of hoofbeasts would be enough to let them stay real.
D --> #moirailmonday, it goes without saying, <> to all the Nepetas and variants of you out there, I wouldn't be here today without mine and I cherish all of you.
D --> Once again seeing the appeal of a metal body. I don't think I'll act on this, but it's cool to think about.
D --> I don't know. I just think. Part of the issue with us is the lack of having fun. You would think I'd get more serious as I got older, more strict. No. Especially since we have moved here. It's a new start. Catch me in the back yard grilling for fun or helping Nepeta with painting. Daily runs as well every dusk, I've got a few acquaintances and (friendly, platonic) rivals in the neighbors, where we try to beat each others times and distances. I may start an archery club soon for like-minded people as well.
D --> Ah. That's. Interesting. A version of me being. Like that.
D --> I'd say that's way too many swords, but I do the same with bows and arrow inventions.
D --> But then again it's fun. There is something freeing about creating things for just fun. Will I ever have a need for a rocket-propelled boxing glove arrow? No. Is it fun? Yes.
D --> The cartoon hoofbeasts are back, I see.
☼ Cartoon? I believe I am quite real, though I suppose these looks are quite bright and colorful. ☼
D --> The way my pusher nearly leapt out of its cavity. I am hoping I did not make an ass out of myself.
D --> Apologies if I'm ever a bit. Odd if I interact with some of you, especially if you were a part of my old friend group. The majority of you were gone. It feels sometimes like I am looking at ghosts. Sometimes I am. I'm happy most of you have lived on and are maybe even happy.
D --> Finally, the workshop is done. Me and Nepeta have spent most of the evening celebrating our hives (partial) completion. It will be a work in progress as we continue to figure out what we needs as we live here. We went out for a nice lunch, and she's taken me dress shopping. It's been a fun time. Picked out a few that I liked and a few she recommended. May post pictures sometime.
D --> I see we are talking about firearm friday. I have dabbled with guns. Mostly bolt action, long-range rifles, and while not exactly a firearm, I have a crossbow as well. These are close enough to how I'm used to fighting with a bow. However, nothing will come close to the effectiveness I have with my greatbow. Armed with spear-like arrows, I can pierce the hull of imperial ships and other spacecraft should I need to. These other weapons are fun diversions.
D --> It is a combination of my Strength and the draw weight of the bows I have alchemized over the sweeps. I have less effective bows that I use for more casual needs (frankly my main bow is overkill), but my iconic is what is able to pierce through most things. Couple that with arrows of a wide variety of uses and niches and that's why I prefer them over firearms. You can't put a punching glove on a bullet.
D --> I am back for better or worse. We recently got a new hive with a garage and workshop attached. Me and Nep have been working to get it furnished and I think it's coming along well. She's excited being around people again, she's already decorated one of the spare blocks with a new shipping wall. It's. Nice being around people as well again.
D --> Small confession. I did brighten my text. Hardly compliant, not like it matters much nowadays. The dark interface and I had to stop butting heads.

You think they give a fuck or damn about Alternian hemocompliance on chittr dot ing?
D --> You are right. Unfortunately I worry about a lot of things these days, it is hardly rational.
D--> I would not do the same but then I am not you. And the change does make it easier to read.
